2-30 Keys and doors activation. To enter the valet mode, change the setting of your vehicle’s alarm system for deactivation mode. Refer to “Activating and deactivating the alarm system” F226. The security indicator light will continue to flash once every 3 seconds indicating that the system is in the valet mode. To exit valet mode, change the setting of your vehicle’s alarm system for activation mode. Refer to “Activating and deactivating the alarm system” F2-26. & Passive arming (models without “keyless access with push-button start system”) When passive arming mode has been programmed by the dealer, arming of the system is automatically accomplished without using the access key/remote transmitter. Note that in this mode, DOORS MUST BE MANUALLY LOCKED. ! To enter the passive mode If you wish to program the passive arming mode, have it done by your SUBARU dealer. ! Arming the system CAUTION In passive mode, the system will automatically activate the alarm but WILL NOT automatically lock the doors. In order to lock the doors you must either lock them as indicated in step 4 below or with the key once they have been closed. Failure to lock the doors manually will result in a higher security risk. 1. Turn the ignition switch to the “ON” position. 2. Turn the ignition switch from “ON” to “LOCK”/“OFF” position (all models) and remove the key from the ignition switch (models without “keyless access with push-button start system”). 3. Open the doors and get out of the vehicle. 4. Before closing the doors, lock all doors with the inside door lock levers. 5. Close the doors. The system will automatically arm after 1 minute. In the passive mode, the system can also be armed with the remote transmitter, access key, keyless access function or the power door locking switch. If the remote transmitter, access key, keyless access function or power door locking switch is used to lock the vehicle, arming will take place immediately regardless of whether or not the passive mode has been selected. ! Disarming the system To disarm the system, briefly press the disarm button on the access key/transmitter.
